@CREWcrew
Just when you thought Louis DeJoy couldnt become more problematic, our investigation revealed that he lied under oath about USPS overtime.

(81,487 posts)And can President Biden make changes at that level? Ask for resignations?
Seriously. President Biden shouldnt be stuck with this vermin strapped to his ankle for the next few years. DeJoy HAS TO GO.

(16,938 posts)there are vacancies on the board and President Joe can fill them. That would give a majority of Dems on the board and THEY can fire him ASAP!!!!!
notinkansas
(1,096 posts)Don't wait to charge him with the crimes he has committed.
MyOwnPeace
(16,938 posts)the President could fire him immediately and then go through rounds of court hearings to determine if it was just cause. I'm guessing the Dems don't want to do that......
notinkansas
(1,096 posts)But he should be subject to legal charges.

(102 posts)a justifiable cause to be fired? And maybe charged with a felony?

(13,137 posts)and it is the BOG who must fire him and thats not necessarily immediate.

(16,773 posts)I know DeJoy donated a million for the privilege of fucking up the USPS to rig the election, but there are others who supported this sedition. Investigate, and see where this one goes. Cannot be minimized.

(129,491 posts)I mailed a cute Valentine's Day card to one of my youngest nephews (they live about 10 miles away). I mailed it on February 6th using the "inside" mail collection slot that is located within my local post office's little lobby (not even mailed in an outside collection box - I avoid those like the plague). Any other time, even with it mailed on a Saturday, it would have been delivered by Tuesday (February 9th, and maybe the 10th at the latest, if there were weather issues).
My nephew got the card yesterday on February 22nd.

(16,938 posts)I know President Joe is kinda' busy, but boy, it would be great if he could grab a minute or two and kick DeJoy into the JUNK MAIL bin!
BumRushDaShow
(129,491 posts)and I was listening to the news today and I think there were at least 4 cabinet member hearings today (Ag, Interior, DOJ, HHS) plus a couple smaller posts were confirmed (including Ambassador to U.N.). So I know that Postal Board is on his radar. But sadly, the jackass is doing damage as long as he is sitting there infesting the USPS.
MyOwnPeace
(16,938 posts)that needed to be fixed 'yesterday!' I just can't imagine how President Joe and his staff have even managed to get 1 hour of sleep per day what with all that they must be doing.
The great thing is that we've elected someone that actually KNOWS what to do and how to do it! QUITE the contrast from that last mis-administration....
BumRushDaShow
(129,491 posts)who were really following what was going on and making lists and checking them twice, and then prioritizing what to do first.
Because of all the delays with the GSA idiot refusing to transition them and then the insurrection, and impeachment, they probably still had a little pile of things that were incomplete with only a bare framework/draft to use as a start, until they were able to finally get in there and pull teeth to get the details of what was going on. But for the rest of the stuff (particularly the published Executive Orders) - they had time to get all the reversal paperwork in order and could have him sign piles of those daily, and then work their way through the harder stuff.
MyOwnPeace
(16,938 posts)It's not like there was anybody from IQ45's Mis-Administration that was actually working for the betterment of the country and its citizens.
It is AMAZING how the RepubliQans have been actively working AGAINST the US Government - not trying to make things better for ALL (yeah, the irony in that - the "Make America Great Bullshit, bullshit....) and it started with Moscow Mitch and his declaring that they would work to make PRESIDENT OBAMA a 1-term President.
Isn't it pathetic that they actually think that OBSTRUCTION and DESTRUCTION is their job?
And they're already back at it with the confirmation hearings taking place.
And the worst part?
74 million people wanted more of the same....
BumRushDaShow
(129,491 posts)and the media needs to keep repeating it TOO - there were 81 million people who rejected what was going on.

(833 posts)Yes, there are many important things that must be accomplished in President Biden's first one hundred days, but the USPS is vital. It's not on the level of the Justice Department, but both need rebuilding and rejuvenating. Why is it taking so long to get rid of this saboteur?
